Introduction
• The GMDH is an algorithm to learn inductively, combinatorial multi-layers for modelling complex systems.
• The method was introduced by A. G. Ivakhnenko in 1966 and several scholars has since developed the theory GMDH for various applications.
Dr M F Abbod
GMDH
An important feature of the algorithm GMDH is providing robust polynomial regression models of linear and non-linear systems.
Dr M F Abbod
Principle of Selection
Ivakhnenko uses the principles of selectivity - "to get plants, for example, with certain properties, there is the first cross and then the first harvest. Later picks up the best plants and it is the second crossing and the second harvest and thus to find a plant that is desired. "
Dr M F Abbod
GMDHGMDH-layers
All combinations of inputs are generated and issued the first layer of the network. The outputs of these are classified and then selected for entry into the next layer with all combinations of selected outlets.
Only those elements whose performance was acceptable survive to form the next layer.
This process is continued as long as each layer (n +1) subsequent produce a better result than the layer (n). When the layer (n +1) is not better as the layer (n), the process is stopped.

• GMDHEach layer consists of Polynomial Equation generated from combinations of pairs of inputs. Each node is the way Ivakhnenko polynomial which is a polynomial of the second order:

Genetic Algorithms
It was developed by Goldberg in 1989.
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are randomised search and optimisation techniques guided by the principles of evolution and natural genetics
Dr M F Abbod
Genetic Algorithms
• Chromosomes are an encoded representations of the solutions, each gene represents a feature
• A fitness value that reflects how good it is
• A crossover mechanism that exchanges portions between strings
• Mutation plays the role of regenerating lost genetic material
